Drift Fence
This is an epic adventure teaming two of the 1930s Big Western Stars. Jim Traft is going to inherit a ranch but is a city dude. Jim Travis bails Traft out of a dire situation and the two become friends. That is where our adventure starts in this roller coaster of an adventurous story. NOTE - A drift fence in this use of the phrase is to keep cattle from drifting off their range. Some Ranchers were fiercely against wire of any kind. But many welcomed the barbed wire. In the panhandle of Texas in the late 1800s there was a drift fence built across the panhandle to keep cattle on several ranches from drifting off their range. this turned to to be very tragic. In the late 1880s there was a terrible blizzard and all the cattle drifted south to try escape the freezing ice and snow. Only to be stopped by the Drift Fence. Thousands of cattle died up against the fence and several ranches were financially destroyed. Another great story from Zane Grey. Big adventure with plenty of action and romance.
